A Special Thank You to Our Heritage Society Donors!

What a wonderful evening celebrating the generosity and dedication of our Heritage Society donors!

The Middle Tennessee Council, Scouting America, extends our sincere appreciation to everyone who joined us for our Heritage Society Dinner and to all who generously support the Council Endowment Fund.

One of the highlights of the evening was hearing from Eagle Scout Henry Gentzler, who shared his personal Scouting journey and how Scouting has made a difference in his life. His inspiring story was a wonderful reminder of why we do what we do!

We are also very grateful to Rob and Jennie McCabe and Kevin and Mary Marchetti for graciously hosting this wonderful event! Your kindness, generosity, and hospitality helped make the evening truly memorable.

To our valued donors, THANK YOU! Your generosity and commitment help ensure that Scouting continues to inspire, develop leadership skills, and prepare young people for generations to come.
